Despite the fact that the nad83 and wgs84 datums are supposedly identical, there are several ways to get from one to the other and they result in different placement. ESRI recommends this transformation: WGS_1984_(ITRF00)_To_NAD_1983FME appears to use this one: nad_1983_to_wgs_1984_1 I am using AttributeReprojector on a dataset with several coordinate systems. Is it possible to indicate a specific geographic transformation for nad83 to wgs84 when using this? Thank you, Randy McGregor

Hello everyone I got a little lost in this problem, I have three columns segment, direction.I would like to obtain another order column which will be incremented in the event that we have a change either on the segments or on the direction, I tried to give you an example which explains the situation, thank you in advance

I've connected to my ArcGIS Portal and can read a feature service. I want to add several where clauses to narrow down this read each time. Adding "objectid">0 returns records, adding "workerid"=88 returns records, but I can't figure out the syntax to apply both in the same where clause. When using the REST API directly its just where=ObjectID>0&workerid=88 and this returns multiple records. But in FME it returns 0 Any ideas how i can combine multiple conditions in my where clause?

I am trying to have this demo https://community.safe.com/s/article/live-spatial-dashboard working on my FME Server, but I am not sure what is the right port to use in the web socket sender, I have my FME Server in another server from my network so I access it through the hostname and a specific port, but I have tried to use the same host name to get this Demo working and I can't have it correctly. I am using (ws:<hostname>:7078) in the websocket sender, and originally it was (ws:localhost:7078/websockets), my browser is giving me a connection error.When I run the workspace in FME Server I don't get an error, it keeps running.Thanks 

Hi All,I created a SchemaMapper lookup table in PostgreSQL and used it to map schemas in two scenarios.When I used ESRI SDE feature class as a reader and PostgreSQL as a writer the SchemaMapper mapped all and no problemWhen I used SQLExecutor reading from Microsoft SQL Server database that creates a query from four tables and writing to a Single PostgreSQL table, the SchemaMapper outputs the results as unmapped. I have used AttributeExposer transformer and it still didn't change. please see the screen shot below:Can anyone please help me fix the issue or let me know if I'm missing anything?Thank you in advance

I am wanting to trigger a very simple automation using a webhook. There is no need to pass any parameters - I just need the automation to run two workspaces. When I set up the webhook, copy the webhook url, and then start the automation, the webhook fails to run if I call it.  What puzzles me is that configuring a webhook using the automations (as opposed to creating a webhook for a specific workspace) doesn't add a token that I can manage under User Settings >> Manage Tokens. I found this token management to be essential to ensuring that the webhook had the correct permissions to run successfully. Please advise on what I am missing or doing incorrectly. Note that I am using FME Server 2020.0 (Win64) Thanks

Hello Community, I am trying to extract values of attributes in a table that is in a HTML page.Actually the table is updated every 20 minutes or so on this URL:  https://www.hydrodaten.admin.ch/fr/2174.html The table looks like this:I have tried to use a HTML Table reader but unfortunately the attributes names contain also a date / time and they are changing all the time, so if I extract it at regular intervals, it doesnt work anymore as the field name will have changed in between:  Then I have tried the Http Caller + HTML Extractor but I can't figure out which CSS Selector I should use to extract the values of the table. Here is the HTML part of the webpage that contains the information I am looking for: <div class="horizontal-scroll-wrapper"> <table class="table table-bordered table-narrow">  <thead>  <tr>   <th width="30%" scope="col">Mesures</th>    <th class="text-center" scope="col&q

I have followed the tutorial attached link to build a dashboard to report on 250,000 records in a html report. Unfortunately this is my only option since we don't have FME server 2020. I am spending far too long to work out a way to stop the html file crashing as it tries to load all 250,000 records in the table. I am trying to work out how to convert the table to an array or other in javascript but I believe htmlreportgenerator is not designed for this. If anyone has a solution I can insert in the custom html that would be great. <div id="myTable" >               <table class="table table-striped">                  <thead>                     <tr>                        <th>Document Number</th>                        <th>TASK ID</th>                        <th>Document Stage</th>                        <th>Document Version</th>                        <th>Date Completed</th>                        <t

I need help with ideas on how to extract areas where the width >=1.1m within a polygon. I have attached a file (file geodatabase) here for anyone who wants to give it a shot. It is a long and skinny polygon reflecting sidewalks with curb and gutter all connected together in reality.I have a solution working okay for a small number of such polygons. But it is not working efficiently enough for a large number of records. I have a total of more than 20,000 records to be processed.Please share your thoughts.Thanks!

When I have a @ symbol in a POST mutipart upload value  FME displays the below error when I run the work bench. This FME edition does not recognize the `' function. Please ensure that the current platform supports this function, the function name is spelled correctly, and that you have installed all required plug-ins I have used a string replacer tranformer and encoded with %40 as a workaround in the past, but with the form email validation on CKAN it does not accept the %40 encoding and expects an @ symbol. Does anyone have any idea how to upload values with an @ symbol in the httpcaller?

Hi, In FME Workbench 2020.2.1 I'm trying to create a new web service from the service named "safe.google-sheets.Google Sheets" (Google Sheet API v.4), but, unlike other web services, seems not to be possible: this service isn't listed in the list of choices. Could it be a bug? Thanks!

I have very little python knowledge so I have real trouble understanding the documentation FME provides:http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/fmepython/api/fmeobjects/_rastertools/fmeobjects.FMERasterTools.calculateSlope.html?highlight=rastertools#fmeobjects.FMERasterTools.calculateSlope I have a PythonCaller that calculates the slope of a Raster. At the end I want to itterate over the cells to calculate the desired height, but for now I want to understand how to use Python to manipulate a raster. class FeatureProcessor(object):    def input(self,feature):            raster = feature.getGeometry()            rst = fmeobjects.FMERasterTools()            settings = {'kFME_CalculateSlope_interpolateNodata' : 'No'}            raster_new = rst.calculateSlope(1,raster,settings)            feature.setGeometry(raster_new)This works, except that it still interpolates Nodata. So how should I write down the settings dict to tell the function not to interpolate and use the Horn method?

Hi Everyone I have been trying to read pdfs and save to jpeg. The issue seems that I can only write 3 Bands to the Jpeg Writer(R,G,B). Once I remove the Alpha8 Channel, the background turns black. I have tried multiple ways of fixing it, but to no avail, I am stuck right now. I found this excellent Article on the forum, but I still seem to have the issue with the Colour Values, can someone please help out? Is there an elegant way of fixing this? I can succesfully export png, but can't crack this Jpeg Writer! Any help or advice will greatly appreciated. Fred
